What are the chances I get a spot if I'm on the waitlist?

There's real reason for optimism. Uplift's waitlists tend to move quickly, and families are admitted off the waitlist right up through the first day of the new school year as spots open. Your exact chances depend on your lottery number, your school, and the grade you applied for, since some campuses and grades have more movement than others.

A few things to keep in mind while you wait:

Monitor your email and text messages closely, since that's how Uplift sends offers, and offers come with a deadline to respond. If you don't accept within the timeframe given, the offer can be rescinded and passed to the next family on the list. You can check your current waitlist position anytime by logging in to your SchoolMint account.
